Key Insights
The overall vision is that personalization, collaboration, and informalization (informal learning) will be at the core of future learning. These will become the central guiding principles for organizing learning and teaching. The paradigm is characterized by lifelong and life-wide learning, shaped by the ubiquity of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Due to technological advances and structural changes in European labor markets related to demographic change, globalization, and immigration, generic and transversal skills will become more important.
